Hilgenberg was selected by the New Orleans Saints in the fourth round of the 1984 NFL draft.[6] He spent ten years with the Saints, earning Pro Bowl honors in 1992.[1][2] Hilgenberg was inducted into the Saints Hall of Fame in 2006, and was selected as one of the greatest 50 players in franchise history in 2016.[7]
He is the son of player and coach Jerry Hilgenberg, brother of former center Jay Hilgenberg, and the nephew of Minnesota Vikings linebacker Wally Hilgenberg; the brothers were teammates on the Saints in 1993.[8][9]
Hilgenberg was offensive quality control coach for the Green Bay Packers in 2011, and assistant offensive line coach for 2012–13. He resigned his coaching position in April 2014.[10]
